Global digital solutions venture Keytree is creating nearly 100 jobs at its new operation in Port Talbot.
The firm has invested in a new managed services centre at the recently renovated magistrates building in the town.
Keytree, which currently employs 35 at its new larger offices, plans to increase its head count to 120 over the next 12 to 18 months, with a recruitment process under way.
The technology consultancy and product developer said its new centre will enable continued growth, fuelled by demand from existing clients who include Jaguar Land Rover, ARM, Greggs, BP, Wales & West Utilities and the 海角视频 Ministry of Justice.
The company first set up an operation in Port Talbot two years ago.
Its chief executive Dan McNamara, said “As an organisation we are committed to delivering the highest quality solutions for our customers. This expansion in South Wales will allow us to continue to innovate and expand, attract and develop the best people and support them in achieving their potential which will undoubtedly benefit our existing and future customer base.
"We look forward to continued growth in the region and further engagement with local businesses and the wider community.”
Work for Reach plc and become part of a very big and very lovely digital sales family
What do you do if you really fancy selling advertising for one of the biggest news publishers in the 海角视频 & Ireland but don't know where to start?
You'll think of yourself as digitally savvy of course, but what if you aren't sure you've got all the right skills?
Then again, what ARE the right skills for a job in media sales?
Is it having a CV as long as your arm? Extensive sales experience? Knowing someone on reception who can put a good word in to the powers that be?
All of that could help, of course, but here at Reach what we really like is people with bags of potential, loads of enthusiasm, and tonnes of talent. We care less about what you know right now and more about what you'd like to be an expert in one day.
We believe there's room for everybody in the Reach family of digital sales executives.
To save you swotting up on who we are, let's say we publish vast amounts of newspaper titles across the 海角视频 & Ireland and have a network of more than 80 websites.

Following its investment in Port two years ago, Keytree has established close relationships with various educational bodies including Swansea and Cardiff universities and Neath Port Talbot College. It will look to recruit the best graduates from these organisations as the operation expands.
The technology venture also has a close working relationship with Swansea-based Sports & Wellbeing Analytics. Supported by Keytree and Swansea University the business has designed and built a head impact management and monitoring system, Protecht, to better understand and prevent issues relating to concussion in impact sports.
Currently in use by professional rugby regions the Ospreys and Cardiff Blues, the technology utilises sensors in a mouthguard to display data resulting from head impacts.
Keytree is also a sponsor of Port Talbot Town FC’s youth academy, Talycopa AFC and the Ospreys. It said it will continue to seek out further sponsorship and investment opportunities.
Its managing director Tim Kyle, said: “We are thrilled by the success of our South Wales base over the last two years which is a testament to the dedication and skill of the entire team. We have a number of exciting projects and initiatives in the pipeline for the coming years and the capabilities of our new office will be pivotal.”
In addition to its headquarters in London, Keytree has recently established a development centre in Bangalore. It also has offices in Madrid, Syndey and Toronto.
